Banana splitFree cross-stitch pattern

Banana split is a cross-stitch pattern of 28 × 28 stitches from the Sweet Celebrations album of Stitch Puzzle. It uses 5 DMC colours and 446 whole cross stitches, with no backstitch and no part stitches.

DMC 3857 Rosewood Dark covers the most cells, 137 stitches (31% of the design). The smallest amount is DMC 169 Pewter Light, with 29 stitches.

On 14-count Aida it measures 2.0 × 2.0 in (5.1 × 5.1 cm) and fits a 4-inch hoop. Cut the fabric at least 6 × 6 in (16 × 16 cm), so you have 2 in to spare on every side.
